Tryphena Grommit (Miss), pictured, was shocked by a parking fiasco at Avebury yesterday.
“I’m a frequent visitor to Avebury” said Miss Grommit “and I often stay all day and spend lots of money. But yesterday I was on my way to Devizes and wanted a tinkle, I was desperate. I only wanted to pop into Avebury for a moment to use the facilities there but imagine my distress to see the notice – £7 pounds for ten minutes!. It’s an outrage, the blinking jobsworths”.
We understand this is not the first complaint and the Trust have said they’ll reconsider if they get enough of them. Watch this space….

But, but … how is the National Trust going to be able to afford its plush HQ in Swindon and all those people with “competitive” salaries unless they charge the sheeple / “customers” as much as they possibly can? 😉
Please note: it’s cheaper and more enjoyable to park at the Red Lion pub (for free) and spend a few £ in the pub. Even if you only buy (say) a cup of coffee, you can take a tinkle without taking the piss / abusing their free car parking.
